Topcony 360° Security Camera Outdoor with Humanoid

Not sharp enough to identify perpetrators.
Bike stolen, zoomed in but couldn’t see their faces

This Camera works well and is just what I needed. Motion detector is very good and when watching playback it is very easy to capture and screen shot anything you need. Well impressed.

I particularly like the intellegent night vision. When it detects movement at night it switches to colour mode with led floodlights. Added deterrent to the farmer who keeps driving his vehicles over our lawn.

I bought one similar to this a few years ago. Works fine just fancied updating and upgrading. Looked at quite a few for the same price on Amazon and EBay, but for the price, there was also a discount at the time, I went for this one. It’s got so many functions, love the motion detection, didn’t have that before. Really easy to set up and I really like the Camhi app, I like to get notifications if there’s any movement outside as it covers the gate where my e-bikes are stored . Would definitely recommend

I purchased this camera to replace another PTZ camera, which did not have humanoid detection.

It feels well made and was easy to set up using a network cable plugged into my router initially, before adding it to my WiFi. What I thought was great is that it makes you change the default admin password as part of the set up process, great for security!

This new one is much better than my previous camera as I am getting no false alarms from moving rain, shadows and swirling leaves on the driveway. The picture is clear and sharp and the humanoid tracking works very well as long as the person is walking at a normal walking pace. I have made several set points and the tracking will go back to the last set one after it has finished tracking.

Although it’s the same 1080p quality as my old camera, the snapshot’s received in the notifications seem just that little bit better quality as is the overall video image quality.

It has a colour night vision option, but I am using infra red as I don’t want the bright white lights shining on my neighbours windows. They are very bright which is good as it can act as a security light if needed.

The only thing I would like is the ability to restrict where the humanoid detection ‘detects’, but I think that is an app issue and not an issue with the camera.

Overall a great value camera.

So after a few years of having cameras everywhere around my house as I really like the level of security that they give you, I’ve found that a camera that can track any type of movement seems to be the most effective in dissuading people from coming any closer to the house unless they actually need to, you’ll find even delivery drivers hesitate until they know that they need to come onto the property to deliver.

This model is a Wi-Fi type but still needs a power supply none can be connected to an nvr system like I have done at my own home, this enables you to remotely watch any location that only needs power and is in distance of your router or any type of extension for your Wi-Fi.

Images come out clear, the main tracking facility seems to be able to follow anything that moves although it does prefer humans which is how we have it set up and this enables us to be sure even when anybody is on the property at any given time and record the moment for future use if necessary.

I needed to upgrade an exterior camera which connects over wifi – I was using an ieGeek IE20 camera but this Topcony TY10 model seemed to offer a higher specification. In fact the two cameras look almost identical and utilise the same user software so I guess it is just a question of an internal firmware upgrade.
I downloaded the CamHipro android app from Google Playstore and connected to the camera without a problem. I then installed the camera outside on a garden shed to monitor the house and garden. The picture quality is very good day and night.
The manual is adequate, but you will need some trial-and-error to set up some of the features – for example, several adustments are on a scale of 1-100 without any indication of which way round the numbers apply to, say, the sensitivity of the motion sensing alarm. Also, some things in the manual seem to lag behind the software within the camera – for example, to connect directly to the camera with a web browser, the manual says ‘only Internet Explorer’ but Chrome worked perfecty.
You can set a range of different types of alarm, although the motion detection is basic and so any movement (such as trees blowing in the wind) can trigger an alarm. I configured the camera to send an email when an alarm occurs and this works well, although again the manual says only a single photo is attached but in fact the software allows up to three images to be sent. The automatic tracking is impressive, though the speed at which the camera rotates to follow the subject is not that fast – so if someone walks past the camera quickly it may fail to keep up with their movement.
I have also accessed the camera using ONVIF without problems.
There are certainly some improvements to the quality of the software and documentation which could be made, but bear in mind that this camera is only a fraction of the price of even a semi-professional model such as Hikvision.

The image quality is very good. The lights are a great deterrent at night too!!

I’ve had a couple of these types of CCTV and this new one is an absolute bargain and packed with useful features. It’s got all the standard stuff plus 360 degree viewing and it can be pointed downwards underneath the camera which some cameras can’t. The image and video playback and download (to my iPhone) is simple as is the installation of the micro SD card via a little rubber window as opposed to some cameras that have a fiddly flap needing a tiny screwdriver.
What I think is really marvellous is the ‘Intelligent’ mode of night vision. With this switched on via the easy access menu, when the camera detects movement it switches on a light so that the subject can be illuminated and you get colour night vision. Not only that but the humanoid recognition feature means the camera doesn’t detect small animals such as dogs or foxes and only activates when a person is in view as can be seen by the video I’ve posted with this review.
All in all I think this is a fantastic camera. With a standard PIR security light costing around 20 this camera is a must-have, and all you do is plug it in and away you go.
Highly recommended.

I was very impressed for the price, was easy to setup and use. Picture quality is very good, have got it sending email pictures on motion, like that it uses SD card so you don’t have to buy expensive cloud storage or a subscription to see past activity. Best feature for me was the very bright LED lights that come on when it senses motion which means that video is clearer but also means it doubles up as a security light and helps me to see when walking around side of house at night. Would recommend!

I bought cctv for our front house, needs protection specially im always away home, and it is lovely good easy to use and easy to install, video is perfectly good and pictures,with motion detection and night vision, this 360 Security Camera Outdoor with Humanoid Detection, Intelligent Auto Track CCTV Camera Wireless WiFi PTZ Camera 1080P Color Night Vision, IP66, 2-way Audio, Support Smartphone, PC, ONVIF, NVR, im happy of my purchase, value for money

First off this security camera has a host of features thatwe weresurprisedat, given the price point – I don’t know how theydo it! Compared to other cameras we looked at, it’s half the price!

The camera is small in comparison to other models and very easy to set up and install. Instruction manual was good and the stepsclear andeasy to follow.Theimage quality is very good during the day, better than at night but i expectmost cameras are like this.Loving the zoom in and out and rotate features that I can do via the app on my phone. The ability to exclude regions so as to capture higher risk areas/angles is great – exactly what we need at our property. The wi-fi signal is good and pretty much always behaves itself. A few times it dropped but rarely drops.

Overall a very well built security camera and am happy with our purchase.

Simple to set up and link to the app & get it working straight away.Easy to connect to WiFi.
A really nice feature is you can do everything on your phone, set up camera, talk to the postman with 2 way audio(very useful when waiting for a parcel while at work.
The picture is pretty darn good for what I paid, no faults there.
Recordings are very clear & crisp even at night.
Another great future is auto tracking.
For the price they are much better quality than I expected & have all you need to monitor your home.
Would definitely recommend.

What a absolute brilliant & cheap 360 pan tilt and zoom wireless security camera..
I’m extremely happy with the clarity of the video quality & also the wide angle view.
Night vision includes a flood/spotlight which is ideal now the nights are drawing in, the 360 view covers all areas..
The night vision can also display full colour picture/video which is amazing quality.
The big benefit with this camera is the smart ai human motion detection, this will certainly save on false alerts from flys etc
I use this camera wirelessly and I haven’t had any problems at all.
All in all a brilliant pan tilt & zoom 360 degree motion aI detection camera.

Topcony 360 Security Camera Outdoor was easy to install simple and clear user guide provided. CamHipro app was free and easy to use.
1080P Color Night Vision is great, I can log in on my phone at any time to see what going on in the Garden. Wireless signal works a long distance from my router and found the 2.4 ghz channel automatically.
The PTZ is really good and very responsive operated from the app on my android phone.
outdoor IP66, and the 2-Way Audio is useful, the spotlight comes on automatically when it detects someone.
Excellent wifi camera good price. Reliable connection from phone when away from home.
I have no hesitation to recommend it.

The camera was instantly recognised on Ethernet connection using CamHi app. It is amazing at tracking people. In my initial test for a few days, it is doing great. The image quality is crisp and the video is clear even in low light. Worked at about 7 meters away. So I think the range is great, too. For the price this is great choice. The motion sensing is really good.
